My best friend just came out to his Mom and Dad on Valentines Day. He got kicked out and his other family members live in another state.
My Parents let him stay with us for the 3 day weekend but now they aren't letting him stay. What should I do?
Should I tell my parents to let him stay a few more days? Tell them to talk to his parents? What if they kick him out again?

I think that your parents need to talk with his parents about it. His parents need to understand and accept their son even though it's hard.

Well do your parents know why he was kicked out of the house. If not maybe they will be more understanding and let him stay longer until your friend and his parents can work out a solution. It might help if your parents do talk to his parents too though.

Yeah, if your parents know why he was kicked out, and they aren't homophobic (obviously) then they'll probably be more understanding. Then they need to talk to his parents about it. He should probably get into contact with his other family members, in case his family turn nasty, unless he can live at your house.... i'm just saying that cos some family like expel members for being gay/bi....

I agree that your folks should talk with his folks. I disagree with the part that they should accept him, though. The issue isn't 'acceptance', it's responsibility. Parents have the duty and responsibility to take care of their children, regardless of how hard it is, or their disagreement with some issue with their kids.
Kids are forever, there's no return policy. If they refuse to let him back in, your folks should call the authorities and make a report of abandonment and neglect.

If he's under 18, make a report with social services. If he is 18 or older, unfortunately, there isn't much that you can do for him if your parents say that he can't stay any longer, aside from contacting his family members, seeing if they're accepting, and, in the event that they are, doing what you can to help make arrangements for him to go stay with his other family members.

Like everyone else is saying, have your parents talk to your friends parents. Also, if he's under 18 then what his parents are doing is illegal and if they don't accept him then call the authorities. I also suggest having your friend call his other family members.

Have a discussion with both families and see what happens. Be greatful that your parents let him stay. Try to ask your parents if he can live until he finds a place. Or just let him permanetly let him live with you.

Just bcause someone suggest letting a friend live with another friend permanantly doesn't mean he's gay. It's called adoption and people do it for different reasons, in this case to help out a friend in serious need. When I learned about what happened to my friend and how he was sent to foster home I felt really bad and I knew me and my grandma would have adopted him instantly if he asked us to. i'm bi, but I have no personal feelings for him. He's like a brother to me.

ok, sorry, that was a regular question. i have a friend myself, he comes to my place sometimes, we play video games, sometimes he stays night at my place, but he's my friend, i'm not gay, i just wanted to know, if he is gay, and his parent know it, so that would be a reason for dont letting his friend stay there any longer.
